After breaking a news-story about someone talking to the government about the mob leads to an assassination of the would-be stool pigeon, the reporter, Dan Duryea, who leaked the story is fired and goes to a small-town to a newspaper run by Gale Storm whose father had just died. He immediately takes over and soon becomes involved in a murder mystery when the daughter-in-law of wealthy paper magnate, Herbert Marshall, is murdered.
We immediately find out who has carried out the dastardly deed and the link is there when the murderer turns to help from the same mobster who had killed the man Duryea had exposed.
Marshall shows his usually icy veneer and one wonders what was really going on between himself and the daughter-in-law.
For myself, the ending came too quickly.
